Season 8 Award Winners
Award: Most Powerful Storytelling
This award goes to the film that stopped us in our tracks and drew us in completely. We look for a compelling premise with characters that help us understand the world around us better than before. This award goes to the film that we think of first when we think, “Season 8 Films.”
The Forgotten Place
Oscar Rene Lozoya II
Award: Celebrating Difference
This is the film that most expands our thinking about what it means to be different. When a film can illustrate how someone is different while also instilling a sense of empathy in the viewer, then that’s a film worthy of the Celebrating Difference award.
Nice To Meet You All
Guen Murroni
Award: Inspiring Connection
This is the film that speaks to the heart about what meaningful connection looks like and feels like. Whether the film makes a person feel gratitude for the connections they have, or a film that inspires a person to seek out the connections they need, a viewer is left inspired and uplifted.
